Lemon
The yellow lemon is distinguished by :
- deep yellow colour
- rough, thick skin
- intense, juicy fragrance
- very juicy pulp
- its variety: Eureka
L for lemon
The intense yellow colour of the Eureka lemon is a good indicator of ripeness. Although the 'Eureka' variety of our lemons is a so-called '4-season' variety, Corsica's mild climate means there is only one harvest a year.
Lemons can be used in a wide variety of interesting ways. Lemons are good for everything:
- in cosmetology for brightening the skin, anti-wrinkle masks, hair radiance, etc.
- for the composition of fragrances
- as a natural antiseptic, anti-fatigue, reduces mouth ulcers...
- using lemon wood to line the inside of mahogany furniture
- and, of course, in cooking, which goes hand in hand with fish. The zest is particularly appreciated for flavouring pastries and sorbets.
- Its peels are used to make candied fruit and fruit jellies.
